CONGREGATIONAL 
CHRISTIAN 
CONFERENCE 


25  W.  626  ST.  CHARLES  ROAD 

WHEATON,  ILLINOIS  60187 

(312)682-3110 


THE  BIBLE  -  We  believe  the  Bible  to  be  the 
divinely  inspired  Word  of  God  and  to  be  the 
final  authority  for  all  men  in  nnatters  of 
faith,  daily  Christian  living  and  church  gov- 
ernment. 

THE  TRINITY -We  believe  that  there  is 
one  God,  eternally  existent  in  three  persons: 
Father,  Son,  and  Holy  Ghost. 

THE  LORD  JESUS  CHRIST  -  We  believe  in 
the  deity  of  Christ,  in  His  virgin  birth,  in  His 
sinless  life,  in  His  miracles,  in  His  vicarious 
and  atoning  death  through  His  shed  blood, 
in  His  bodily  resurrection,  in  His  ascension 
to  the  right  hand  of  the  Father,  and  in  His 
personal  return  in  power  and  glory. 

REDEMPTION  -  We  believe  that  for  salvation  of  lost  and  sinful  man 
regeneration  by  the  Holy  Spirit  is  absolutely  essential. 

THE  HOLY  SPIRIT  -  We  believe  in  the  present  ministry  of  the  Holy 
Spirit  by  Whose  indwelling  power  and  fullness  the  Christian  is  enabled 
to  live  a  godly  life  in  this  present  evil  world. 

THE  RESURRECTION  -  We  believe  in  the  resurrection  of  both  the 
saved  and  the  lost;  they  that  are  saved  unto  the  resurrection  of  life,  and 
they  that  are  lost  unto  the  resurrection  of  damnation. 

SPIRITUAL  UNITY      We  believe  in  the  spiritual  unity  of  all  believers 

in  Christ.

A  WORD  FROM  OUR  PRESIDENT 


1948-1978.  Thirty  years  have  passed  in  the  life  of  our  Conference.  Our 
roots,  however,  go  back  nineteen  centuries  to  the  day  when  our  Lord 
said:  "I  will  build  My  Church."  We  have  experienced  three  short 
decades  of  testing,  trials,  growth,  and  maturing.  Today,  we  are  on  the 
threshold  of  a  new  decade,  perhaps  the  most  important  in  human 
history.  We  have  grown  through  our  experiences,  matured  in  our 
understanding  of  God's  Word,  enjoyed  an  ever  increasing  sense  of  our 
fellowship,  and  felt  the  closeness  of  unity  in  the  Holy  Spirit. 

May  1  encourage  every  member  of  our  Conference  with  the  words 
written,  through  the  inspiration  of  the  Spirit,  by  the  pen  of  the  great 
missionary-apostle  Paul: 

''Thanks  be  to  God  who  gives  us  the  victory  through  our  Lord 
Jesus  Christ.  Therefore,  my  beloved  brethren,  be  steadfast, 
immovable,  always  abounding  in  the  work  of  the  Lord  knowing 
that  your  toil  is  not  in  vain  in  the  Lord.  •  Let  the  Word  of  Christ 
dwell  in  you  richly  in  all  wisdom.  •Put  on  compassion,  kindness, 
humbleness  of  mind,  meekness  and  longsuffering  •  and  above  all 
these  put  on  love  which  is  the  bond  of  perfectness.  •  And  let  the 
peace  of  God  rule  in  your  hearts,  to  which  ye  are  called  in  one 
body; and  be  thankful." 

Dr.  James  H.  Blackstone,  Jr. 
President

CODE  OF  ETHICS 

This  Code  of  Ethics  was  adopted  at  the  29th  Annual  Meeting. 
OPENING  STATEMENT 

The  Cliristian  Minister,  as  he  points  men  and  women  to  Jesus  Christ, 
must  liimself  be  a  committed  and  exemplary  illustration  of  the  very 
things  he  says  is  expected  of  his  flock.  This,  therefore,  calls  for 
standards  which  we  believe  to  be  commensurate  with  the  Christian 
Ministry: 

IN  MY  OWN  LIFE: 

Remembering  my  first  responsibility  is  to  God  .  .  . 

I  will  always  devote  time  to  seeking  the  will  of  God  through  reading  the 

Scriptures  and  prayer. 
I  will  endeavor  to  keep  myself  physically  and  emotionally  fit. 
1  will  consider  the  needs  of  my  family  as  a  sacred  obligation  before 

God. 
I  will  seek  in  all  ways  to  be  Christlike  in  my  attitude  and  conduct. 
I  will  be  biblical  in  my  preaching,  presenting  the  whole  counsel  of  God, 

speaking  the  truth  in  love. 
I  will  strive  to  introduce  men  to  Christ,  and  to  build  His  church. 

IN  RELATION  TO  THE  CHURCH: 

Endeavoring  to  be  a  good  shepherd  of  the  church  .  .  . 

I  will  remember  that  I  am  called  to  lead,  but  also  to  serve. 

1  will  never  violate  a  confidence  given  to  me. 

I  will  be  diligent  in  my  duties  as  pastor,  never  lazy,  but  with  God  as  my 

judge. 
I  will  strive  to  develop  leadership  within  my  church  and  to  involve  them 

with  me  in  the  conducting  of  the  affairs  of  the  church. 
I  will  prayerfully  strive  to  keep  the  Lord  Jesus  Christ  in  the  foreground 

of  my  ministry,  knowing  that  God  will  not  share  His  glory  with 

another. 

IN  RELATION  TO  OTHER  MINISTERS: 

Seeking   to   be   a   brother   in   Christ   to   my   fellow  ministers  of  the 

Gospel  .  .  . 

i  will  not  seek  to  build  my  church  at  the  expense  of  another  church, 

nor  my  ego  at  the  expense  of  another  minister. 
I  will  not  speak  disparagingly  of  either  my  predecessor  or  my  successor, 
i  will  refrain  from  pastoral  contacts  with  former  parishioners  except 

with  the  knowledge  of  the  present  pastor. 

IN  RELATION  TO  THE  CONFERENCE: 

Recognizing  my  duties  to  the  larger  fellowship  of  the  Conservative 
Congregational  Christian  Conference,  and  being  convinced  of  the 
purpose  it  fulfills  in  the  Body  of  Christ,  I  will  support  it  with  personal 
participation,  prayer  and  financial  support  as  God  enables  me.

Board  of  Directors 

Conservative  Congregational  Christian  Conference 

25W626  St.  Charles  Road 

Wheaton,  Illinois  60187 

Gentlemen: 

We  have  examined  the  statement  of  cash  receipts  and  disbursements 
of  Conservative  Congregational  Christian  Conference  as  of  December  31,  1977 
Our  examination  was  made  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing 
standards,  and  accordingly  included  such  tests  of  the  accounting  records 
and  such  other  auditing  procedures  as  we  considered  necessary  in  the  cir- 
cumstances . 

As  described  in  Note  1,  the  Conference's  policy  is  to  prepare  its 
statement  on  the  basis  of  cash  receipts  and  disbursements;  consequently, 
certain  revenue  is  recognized  when  received  rather  than  when  earned,  and 
certain  expenses  are  recognized  when  paid  rather  than  when  the  obligation 
is  incurred.   Accordingly,  the  accon^anying  statement  is  not  intended  to 
present  financial  position  and  results  of  operations  in  conformity  with 
generally  accepted  accounting  principles. 

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  statement  of  cash  receipts  and 
disbursements  presents  fairly  the  recorded  cash  transactions  of  Conserva- 
tive Congregational  Christian  Conference  for  the  year  ended  December  31, 
1977,  on  the  basis  of  accounting  described  in  Note  1,  which  basis  has  been 
applied  in  a  manner  consistent  with  that  of  the  preceding  year.

CONSTITUTION  AND  BY-LAWS  OF  THE 
CONSERVATIVE  CONGREGATIONAL  CHRISTIAN  CONFERENCE 

1977 


PREAMBLE 

In  gratitude  to  Almighty  God  for  the  gift  of  salvation  through  our 
Lord  Jesus  Christ;  and  Believing  that,  to  the  glory  of  God,  the  task  of 
the  Church  of  Jesus  Christ  is  two-fold,  i.e.,  the  evangelization  of  the 
world  and  the  edification  of  the  saints;  and  believing  further  that  there 
is  a  definite  need  among  congregationally  governed  churches  of  historic 
Biblical  persuasion  for  an  association  to  assist  them  in  the  performance 
of  said  task:  We,  therefore,  as  autonomous  churches  declaring  our 
unqualified  behef  in  the  entire  Word  of  God  written,  humbly  invoking 
the  guidance  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  have  covenanted  together  to  form  such 
an  association. 

Article  I  -  Name 

The  name  of  this  organization  shall  be:  THE  CONSERVATIVE 
CONGREGATIONAL  CHRISTIAN  CONFERENCE,  hereinafter  called 
the  Conference. 

Article  II  -  Purpose 

1 .  To  deepen  and  extend  the  fellowship  of  our  churches. 

2.  To  encourage  a  steadfast.  Biblical  witness  by  our  churches. 

3.  To  facilitate  co-operation  and  counsel  among  our  churches  with 
regard  to  evangelism,  edification,  Christian  education,  stewardship, 
missions,  church  extension,  Christian  action,  women's  and  men's 
fellowships,  youth  activities,  the  pastoral  ministry,  and  other  related 
concerns. 

4.  To  preserve  and  promote  the  Scriptural  principles  of  the 
autonomy  of  the  local  church  and  the  freedom  of  the  believer  in  Christ. 

Article  III  -  Statement  of  Faith 

1.  We  believe  the  Bible,  consisting  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament, 
to  be  the  only  inspired,  inerrant,  infaUible,  authoritative  Word  of  God 
written. 

2.  We  believe  that  there  is  one  God,  eternally  existent  in  three 
persons:  Father,  Son  and  Holy  Ghost. 

3.  We  believe  in  the  deity  of  Christ,  in  His  virgin  birth,  in  His  sinless 
life,  in  His  miracles,  in  His  vicarious  and  atoning  death  through  His  shed 
blood,  in  His  bodily  resurrection,  in  His  ascension  to  the  right  hand  of 
the  Father,  and  in  His  personal  return  in  power  and  glory. 

4.  We  beheve  that  for  salvation  of  lost  and  sinful  man  regeneration 
by  the  Holy  Spirit  is  absolutely  essential. 

5.  We  believe  in  the  present  ministry  of  the  Holy  Spirit  by  Whose 
indwelling  power  and  fullness  the  Christian  is  enabled  to  live  a  godly 
life  in  this  present  evil  world. 

6.  We  believe  in  the  resurrection  of  both  the  saved  and  the  lost;  they 
that  are  saved  unto  the  resurrection  of  life,  and  they  that  are  lost  unto 
the  resurrection  of  damnation. 

7.  We  beheve  in  the  spiritual  unity  of  all  behevers  in  Christ. 


61 


Article  IV  -  Statement  of  Polity 

1.  We  believe  that  Jesus  Christ  is  the  Head  of  His  body,  the  Church 
universal,  and  of  each  local  church. 

2.  We  believe  that  each  local  church  is  in  itself  a  complete  church, 
and  therefore  autonomous  and  possesses  all  rights  and  responsibilities 
of  the  church  by  the  Holy  Spirit  as  set  forth  in  the  Holy  Scriptures. 

3.  We  beUeve  that  Jesus  Christ  exercises  His  authority  in  each  local 
church  by  the  Holy  Spirit  and  through  the  Holy  Scriptures. 

4.  We  beheve  that  each  local  church  is  amenable  only  to  Jesus 
Christ,  and  not  to  any  association,  conference,  council,  synod  or  any 
other  ecclesiastical  body. 

5.  We  beUeve  that  it  is  proper  and  beneficial  for  each  local  church  to 
seek  fellowship  and  council  of  other  such  local  churches. 

Article  V  -  Membership 

1.  Membership  in  this  Conference  shall  be  attained  by  the  voluntary 
association  of  churches,  ministers  or  individual  laymen  who  find 
themselves  in  full  accord  with  the  Statement  of  Faith  and  Statement  of 
Polity  (Articles  HI,  IV)  of  this  constitution,  and  with  the  general 
principles  of  this  Conference  as  set  forth  in  the  constitution  and 
by-laws.  Conference  membership,  whether  of  church,  minister  or 
layman,  may  be  subject  to  review  by  the  ensuing  annual  meeting  of  the 
Conference.  Ministerial  membership  shall  be  accorded  on  the  basis  of 
the  approved  ministerial  standards  of  the  Conference,  as  set  forth  in  the 
by-laws  of  this  constitution.  Churches  are  not  necessarily  barred  from 
membership  because  of  other  affiliations  so  long  as  they  adhere  to  the 
Statement  of  Faith  and  the  Statement  of  Polity  and  the  workings  of  the 
Conference.  Individual  lay  membership  may  be  held  only  by  members 
of  Congregational  Christian  Churches  which  are  not  member  churches 
of  this  Conference,  or  by  members  of  other  congregationally  governed 
local  churches  which  also  are  not  members  of  this  Conference.  In  the 
event  that  a  non-member  church  joins  this  Conference,  the  individual 
lay  membership  of  any  of  its  members  ceases. 

2.  A  church,  minister  or  individual  lay  member  may  withdraw  from 
membership  in  this  conference  at  any  time  by  its  or  his  own  action,  and 
will  be  removed  from  the  membership  roll  when  written  notice  of  such 
action  is  given  to  the  Chairman  of  the  Credentials  Committee. 

3.  In  the  event  that  there  is  received  a  written  statement  that  a 
member  church,  minister  or  individual  lay  member  has  departed  from 
the  standards  of  faith  and  practice  set  forth  in  this  Constitution  and 
By-Laws,  the  Committee  on  Credentials  shall  make  a  careful  investiga- 
tion of  the  matter.  If  the  charge  appears  to  the  Committee  to  be 
justified,  the  Committee  shall  report  the  matter  to  the  Conference  for 
appropriate  action.  The  Committee  on  Credentials  shall  file  their  report 
in  writing  with  the  Recording  Secretary  of  this  Conference  and  the 
party  accused  at  least  thirty  days  prior  to  the  annual  or  special  meeting 
at  which  the  report  is  to  be  considered.  The  right  to  appeal  to  the 
Conference  by  the  party  accused  is  pre-supposed.

1.  The  Conservative  Congregational  Christian  Conference  encour- 
ages the  forming  of  local  fellowships,  conferences,  or  associations,  of 
churches  and  ministers  who  are  in  accordance  with  Section  1 ,  Article  V, 
of  this  constitution  and  who  are  in  sympathy  with  the  statements  of 
faith  and  polity  of  this  Conference. 

62 


Fellowships,  conferences,  or  associations,  whether  state  or  area,  may

approval  by  the  Credentials  Committee.  Such  action  will  be  subject  to 
review  by  the  ensuing  annual  meeting  of  the  Conference. 

Recognition  by  the  Conference  does  not  bestow  membership  in  the 
National  Conference  upon  churches  or  ministers  of  the  respective 
groups;  churches,  ministers,  or  individual  laymen,  may  attain  voluntary 
membership  according  to  Article  V— Membership,  of  this  constitution.

"I  have  enjoyed  the  fellowship  of  pastors  who  love  the 
Lord,  and  choose  to  fellowship  with  me  in  spite  of  theological 
differences  on  minor  points.  I  have  found  that  joining  the 
CCCC  meant  years  of  enjoyable  fellowship  at  conference,  the 
interest  of  other  pastors  and  churches  in  my  ministry,  and  a 
busy  time  of  service  opportunities."
